HOUSTON – The city of Houston kicked off the President George H. W. Bush’s 100th birthday week celebration at the Bush Monument in downtown Houston.
The program featured Houston Mayor John Whitmire, the Bush family, Jim “Mattress Mac” McIngvale, emcee Linda Lorelle, Houston First CEO Michael Heckman, and a tribute from the Houston Police Department.
The event started at 10 a.m. and a pre-event performance by the Bushes’ favorite local music organization, the Theater Under the Stars Musical Theatre Academy Ensemble began at 9:50 a.m.
The event was sponsored by the George & Barbara Bush Foundation and the Houston First Corporation.
George H. W. Bush actual birthday is June 12. He died at the age of 94 on Nov. 30, 2018

ugh
It seems strange to celebrate this CIA director’s birthday.
Why?
The Bushes are RINOS and TRUMP HATERS
“Died: November 30, 2018 (age 94 years), Houston, TX”
He won’t be attending or appreciating it.
Hope they have video of GHWB blowing out the candles.
Frig’ that POS. He had no problem killing people for personal gain.

I just came back from a trip to see my kids have fun with that swamp heat index at 105 I couldn’t get out of there quick enough
celebrating a traitor’s birthday is stupid and unAmerican
He was in charge when the Soviet Union dismantled their nukes. Be thankful it wasn’t Dukakis.
He has his place in history as a president.
I know the Bushes are too liberal for us, here on Free Republic. But he is still an historic figure and has ties to Houston, so they want to honor him.
Only man who said he doesn’t know where he was when Jack Kennedy was assassinated.
7 Words: Kennedy Assassination Mena Arkansas New World Order
Do I really want to know how he got that nickname?
Bush Senior wasn't that bad a president, but like Bush Junior he was weak. Senior coudn't make a good case for reelecting him. Junior was lost and unassertive and just crumbled up at the end of his presidency.
More and more it becomes clear that politicians are actors and puppets and empty suits. They read the lines people write for them and then do the things the bureaucracy and their advisors tell them to do.
It appeared that he was "old" in '92. But his biggest mistake was "read my lips, no new taxes."
Junior was lost and unassertive and just crumbled up at the end of his presidency.
Dubya wanted to be liked. The media was vicious with him just like we see them handling Donald Trump today.
Maybe my all-time favorite political picture!
We native Houstonians are part amphibian, as we don’t so much as breathe as swallow our air like water.
Do I really want to know how he got that nickname?
Selling mattresses.
